Proceeding contribution from Baroness Andrews (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 20 October 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Planning Bill.

Planning Bill

The noble Lord has partially answered the question. As he says, we do not know at the moment what technologies are going to be needed to carry this form of whatever one calls it. So long as that is the case, it is difficult to be categorical. However, I feel sure that the principle would apply that, if we have the technology and we can do this, which would be very useful, then in due course that would count as ““associated development”” because it would be part of making the infrastructure itself function. I would rather take advice on this from my colleagues in BERR and write to the noble Lord, to see if we can give him a more specific answer.
